Our next digital release is 'Dead Flame Rising', a track by Yorkshire folk band The Steals, which features dance floor-storming remixes from the UK's Uschi Classen, Shur-i-kan and Chicago's Abicah Soul.

What does 'folk house' suggest to you? Perhaps a country cottage with a thatched roof and roses round the door.... We're not seriously suggesting kick-starting a whole new music genre here, but 'Dead Flame Rising' certainly is a unique remix package, taking a hauntingly-beautiful folk song by The Steals and reimagining it for global dance floors with a selection of brilliant house mixes.

London-based musician, producer and writer Uschi Classen knew the track as she was with The Steals singer, Jayn Hanna, when it was recorded in San Francisco in 2008, but she didn't consider reworking it until Hanna suggested that she remix one of the tracks on their acclaimed 'Static Kingdom' album.

The original is in 6/8 time, a very floaty rhythm, 'she says,'which posed some interesting problems for a 4/4 house tune, but I really like the psychedelic, trippy feel the track has and Jayn's lyrics speak to my relationship with music.'

She brought it to Tribe Records as she had known label boss Dean Zepherin for many years. "He inspired me to make electronic music when I was playing bass in a funk band, and the Tribe club nights drew me back into enjoying house music again.'That's very apparent on her Vocal Mix, which layers full-fat tribal bass lines and playful acidic loops around Hanna's soaring, breathy vocals, and an electric guitar played with an E-bow 'which gives it interesting, evocative harmonics, and as it doesn't have a strong rhythm it floats nicely along with the top of the mix.'

As well as being an established electronic producer, DJ, broadcaster and record label head honcho at Dark Energy Recordings, Tom Szites, aka Shur-I-Kan, who's signed to Jimpsters' Freerange Records imprint, is also an accomplished keyboard player in improvisational dance band The Bays, among others. He drops piano riffs and wistful, minor-key melody lines into his rich Vocal Mix, so it's perfect for a 4am appearance when the crowd are ready to go deeper.

DJ Stax (aka Abicah Soul Project) grew up in Chicago during the heyday of the Warehouse and the Muzic Box (that's the mid-80's, if you weren't paying attention in House History class) and he delivers an expansive, techy, echo-laden, dubby and deep mix that'll go down very well in Berlin's Panorama Bar, on the terrace at DC-10, as well as countless all night-dives and high-end dancefloors. It really is that good. He's had releases on Classic, Rush Hour, Jellybean and produced a He's one of the best-kept secrets in deep house, but some secrets are meant for sharing. Don't just take our word for it: listen for yourself.
